Kings of leon. I'm sure now, most of you know this band or have heard of them. due to their explosive new album "Only by night" Id be surprised if you knew their music from their first album released in 2003 called "Youth and Young manhood" This was the album I fell in love with. KOL was my favorite band for years I knew EVERYTHING there was too know. I discovered them in 2004 from a rolling stone magazine. Yadda yadda yadda blah blah.
I HATE THEIR NEWEST ALBUM. I despise it. I really wish they sounded like their older stuff. Now their audience is so... old and gross. I hate it. There's no more youth and freedom in their songs, just primped and proper. I hate it and anyone who likes it. I feel like the newer audience doesnt and will never know the underlying layer of KOL. The raw, southern boys they were and no longer are. Gah.

I suppose the a revision of something we find pure and wonderful is a tough thing to take. Have you spent time with the new music to see if it will grow on you? What do you suspect has changed for those musicians in 5 years? Old and gross, huh? Are those words interchangeable:)?
